In this role, you won't just be an "extra pair of hands"-you will be a vital part of our instructional team. Whether you are supporting a child with additional needs, leading a small phonics group, or helping a teacher manage a busy classroom, you will be an ambassador for our "can-do" culture. We believe in empowering our "lively little learners" to achieve more than they ever imagined, and our Teaching Assistants are at the heart of that mission.

Pathways to Teaching: Many of our TAs go on to train as teachers through our internal School Direct programmes.
Professional Development: Access to specialized training in SEND, Literacy, and Numeracy interventions through our Leadership Institute.
Wellbeing Support: Comprehensive healthcare cash plan (covering dental, optical, and physio), 24/7 employee assistance, and a generous local government pension scheme.
Community Environment: Work in a diverse, multi-cultural, and multi-faith school where every staff member is a valued member of the family.

Strong Core Skills: Grade C/4 or above in GCSE English and Maths (or equivalent).
Passion for Learning: A genuine desire to support children's academic and personal growth.
Resilience: The ability to stay calm under pressure and maintain high expectations for student behavior.
Communication: Excellent verbal and written skills to interact with pupils, teachers, and parents.
Adaptability: A flexible approach-no two days in a primary school are the same!
Key Responsibilities
Instructional Support: Deliver small-group interventions in reading, writing, and maths to help close attainment gaps.
Inclusion: Provide 1:1 support for students with Special Educational Needs (SEND), ensuring they can access the curriculum.
Classroom Management: Assist the Class Teacher in preparing resources and maintaining an inspiring, organized learning environment.
